Discovery Series Ornament – Phuket

Posted on

Let’s wrap up our look at the Thailand mini mugs with the release of the Discovery Series Ornament Phuket. Interestingly enough, there is no country ornament for Thailand yet, but I am sure that it is only a matter of time.

The Starbucks Discovery Phuket ornament highlights Thailand’s largest island and one of Southeast Asia’s most famous beach destinations.

And since Phuket is an island known for amazing beaches and resorts, we again see some ocean scenery to be used for the design of the mug. As an addition to that, there are some houses representing Sino-Portuguese architecture. It is a mix of European and Chinese styles and is coming from the era of Western imperialism when Portuguese settlers hired Chinese workers to build houses and other facilities for them.… Read more
